Java, is a fit and apt commentary upon the rum- sures of the Netherlands' Government, and that commentary come.s with still greater forCe, when we compare the state of Java before she was under the dominion of great Britain, with 'the , high prosperity she attained when under our 'rule. Bappy and hid ustriouS;P k roteCtea ih the 'enjeyment of their property, the Javanese beheld' their con querors not only without fear, hut with respect and gratitude ; they prosecuted their labours in the full enjoyment of security, nor dreamed of that evil which was approaching when abandoned by their friends. They would again be submitted to the yoke of their ancient oppressors, and be a second time compelled to endure the tyranny they had formerly felt, and so happily escaped. The whole island is now in a state of complete insurrection, and so powerful are the insurgents, that it is thought the Dutch will scarcely be able to main tain themselves in the possession of the island ; for it is quite clear that never yet have the Dutch forces been able to produce any very sensible effect upon them. In the mean time, piracy becomes the order of , the day, and English shipping is considered as much an object of legitimate plunder as a Dutch vessel, whilst, however, the Ameriban flag is respected, and sails in full security, although surrounded by the Java pirates. " Ho that is not for me is against me," is a proverb of this part of the globe, and why not in Asia, the more especially as the Javanese feel themselves deeply injured by the Enlist', deeming the cession of the island to the Dutch a shameful and disgraieful desertion. " But not only in this respect is there cause to complain of the proceedings of the Dutch in the East: they even carry their audacity higher, and presume to set at nought the express stipulations of their treaties with us. By the 6th article of the Treaty, dated 17th March, 18'25, it is agreed that orders shall be given by the two Covern- ments to their officers and agents on the East, not to form any new settlement on any of the islands in the eastern seas, without previous authority from their respective Governments in Europe. In the face, however, of this very article, the Dutch have receatly formed new settlements in the free no independent island of Netts, and have hoisted their flag there, even since our possessions in Sumatra were transferred to them ever since April, 1825. As if, however, to display their utter contempt for the British Government, they have gone further, and have actually proceeded to blockade the native ports of Massang and Teettgang, under the very con venient pretext that thest all their possessions -would be in a line. Suinatra.has been abandoned to them, together with the town and fort,and Ma lacca, and the factory at 13eticoolen in exchange, for an alleged right (but.which right never could be established) to the island of Singapore;' and they now avail themselves of this to graspat every thing, saying that the English care not for their proceedings in this quarter, language which Dutch Governors repeat on every occasion, and we may add with apparent reason. Our people in the East say that MYNIILER FALK has cajoled Alessi's. CANNING Mid WYNNE. " The waris still raging with unabated violence in Java, and the Dutch glad to take ad /antage of any opportunity afforded them, tlitrefore promulgate, in high sounding terms, tbe*.r late successes over the SULTAN Soco. A Vera religious silence is, however, observed as to the reverses they experience, but which are no less disastrous than frequent ; so much so indeed, as to render it doubtful whe ther Java will remain a Dutch possession, Not a day passes without some new act of oppres• sion. Every thing is taxed but air, and a mono. .poly in the trade of necessaries as well as the luxuries of life, is secured to Government 'agents, by farming the right of selling them. Accounts have been received of the loss off Atijier of the Danish ship Hope, SWEET, matt ,ter, from London to Singapore. Colonial pro. duceis cheap, and coffee 24 rupees the pecul. Silver, dollars are at a premium of 48 per cent. at Batavia—to the Eastward they are near 100 per cent." *Letters...from Hamburg'', dated the 7th instant, were received yesterday by the steam-patcliet. — Business was in a languid state, and. entirely li mited to the demand for immediate consumption, but money was extremely abundant, and dis counts had fallen to 3 "per cent. So few .new engagements had been entered i n to owing to the distrust among commercial men, that very few billsiof Exchange, or other medium for the employment of Money, remained in cireula- Con. The Marquis of St. Simon, 'French Mini .ater at Copenhagen, who was . stated before to have quitted that city abruptly, through orders to that effect from his Government, had arrived at Altona. Advices to the Bth of February have been re ceived from Mexico. Nothing had at that date been concluded on the subject of the treaty with England, but neither Mr. Ward nor Mr. Morley bad quitted the capital. It was supposed that M. Camacho, Mexican Minister for Foreign Affairs, would proceed with one of those gentle. men to England, to settle the points in dispute With the British Government. THE FUNDS.

WEaca, the celebrated Composer of Frei schutz has written the music of Oberon, or time Elf. King's Oath, expressly for performance in this country ; and we are sure, from the speci mens given last night, that he will be allowed by the public never to have been deserted by his native genius in his execution of this undertak ing. The subject is, indeed, full of excitement to a mind constituted like that of NV EUEII, which delights in the wild and supernatural'. His invo cations, chorusses of fairies, of the grotesque spi sits that attend on the- goblin Puck, the rising of sea-nymps from the ocean, which occupy a large portion of this opera, all attest his peculiar power in the most striking manner. A tine scene of mn• sical effect occurs in the ,third act, where Sir Iluon, who has captivated the heart of Rn . shana, wife to the Ernir of Tunis,i's assailed by the blan- „_. . dishments of her female staves.

CAW§C, as uck, gave an invocation in the second act with much effect, and we have no dada this opera will in crease the eitimution of this charming: little per former. For a rehearsal, the machinery, which is extremely complicated, was remarkably well conducted, and promises to be''perfect - on the night of performance. Several 'new and very fine scenes have been painted for this opera. M. WEBER presided at the. :piano - forte during the whole of • the rehearsal, and no efforts, were wanting on * the part of the orchestra to do justice to this very noble composition.

LEVAYASSEULt, the King's Advo. cate,addressing the Court,observed,that doubtless this would be th'e final episode of a suit which had now lasted more than half a century, occupying the interest of both France and England, and which had been conducted in both countries, with 'sur passing eloquence and learning. After reviewing the facts on which Mr. D. CoopEft founded his claim, the ADVOCA.WGENERAL said the question was, had Mr. D. COOPER a claim to the full sum of '250,000f. for damages ? be was of opinion that he had not a claim to that amount, and that the sum ought to be reduced. The objection to Mr. D. Coorca's claim being declared valid, as regarded the full amount, there remained only to ascertain, by the decision of the Court, the amount which it might apportion as being justly due to Mr. D. COOPER. l'he final decision of the cause was deferred till some day in the present week. It gives us much pleasure to hear from the very best authority, that there is no troth whatever in the reports respecting a celebrated comic and tragic actor having separated himself from his wife and childreni NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICAN SUBSCRIPTION ROOM, APRIL 12.

By the 13tiatarti brig of 'war, Captain Sandom, which arrived on MOnday evening, we learn: that on the 31st of January, . off -Double,headed Shot4Keys, she discovered a brig having a signal of distress flying; boat was sent to her with the surgeon, with directions to steer into the Havannah, as the Bustard would proceed after as soon as she saw the vessels under her protection safe through the Gulf. Oa the 2d ult. the Bustard again fell in with the brig, Which proved to be the General Phipps, not fifteen days from this port to London; Captain Kennedy and two of his crew had died, and the brig was in a very leaky . state, both pumps going, and yet could .not be kept free.

DeATII OP GENE;; AL M'DouGAL.—The follow. ing extract of a letter, dated Kedgeree, Dec. 7, 1825, contains some details of the action alluded to in our paper of yesterday, which took place with the Burmese immediately on the break ing of the armistice, and in which Brig.-General Al'Doust.at unfortunately fell :—" The ship Helen, which left Rangoon on the 23d of November, brings dispattires from Sir A. Campbell, of the '2oth, detailing an unsuccessful attack by the advanced guard, consisting of four regiments of Madras sepoys, under the orders of Brigadier 111‘Dougal, of the Madras European Regiment. It appears Sir A. Campbell was led to suppose there was a party of about 3,000 Burmese on the road he proposed to march, which the advanced guard was sent to disperse; but after advancing about 20 miles on the road to Ave, they were on a sudden surprised by the appearance ofa stockade, which they attacked, but were driven back in some confusion, when six hundred Burman horsemen .charged them. Our troops formed into a, square, as soon as their scattered state , would allow, but not before they lost the Brigadier and one Lieutenant killed, and many wound ed, 14 officers wounded, and 300. sepoys, trilled, and many wounded, whose arms fell into the hands of the enemy. Im mediately our troops joined Sir A. Campbell, he prepared to march with his whole force, when it was expected a decisive battle would take place. The Burmese were in gr eat force in e very direction round Prome, not at all intimidate by Sir A. 'Campbell% movements. It appears the Burmese hold the sepoy force in great contempt.” OLD BAILEY.—(Tuis DAT.)
